I pored over expressive/abstract landscapes online. I took deep breaths so as to inhale the essence of the photo I'd paint from, albeit one given to me so therefore not of a scene I'd experienced myself.
I unsnapped my realism leash and said, Run!
This is the same scene I'd painted the day before, and I did romp around a little more freely.
But someone kept snapping on a leash!
I'm thinking I'll sneak back out to play again tomorrow and see if I can stay unfettered.
